Is it eaiser to float in salt water than fresh water?
It is easier to float in salt water than in fresh water.
Does objects that float in water float in salt water?
Yes. Salt water has a slightly higher density then fresh water which means its a little easier for things to float in salt water. So if it floats in fresh water it will certainly float in salt water.
Why do humans float easier in salt water compared to fresh water?
because the salt in the water dissolves and then making the water denser therefore making it easier for objects and human to float
Why swimmers float better in ocean particle theory?
Because salt water is denser than fresh water.

Why do things float easier on salt water than fresh water?
density
Is it easier to swim in saltwater?
When salt is dissolved in water, as it is in ocean water, that dissolved salt adds to the mass of the water and makes the water denser than it would be without salt.Because objects float better on a dense surface, they float better on salt water than fresh water. The denser the salt water, the easier it is for objects to float on top of it.
Why is it easier to float in saltwater than in fresh water then in fresh water?
Because salt is dense, so denser the water the better you float!
Does objects that float in water float in salt water?

Can swimmer float more easily on a freshwater or an ocean?
The more salt there is in the water, the easier it is to float.
Why is it easier to float in salty water tahn in flesh water?
It's easier to float in salty water because the water is not dense compared to fresh water. No its not! The other way around! The salt water is MORE dense than that of fresh water, so you float easier: there are more particles in that given space. :)
What is the difference between the densities of fresh water and salt water?
Salt water is denser than fresh water. Thus, it is easier to float in salt water.
Why is it easier to swim in seawater then it is to swim in fresh water?
probally fresh because no salt in mouth or eyes addition: it is easier to float/swim in seawater since seawater is denser than fresh water.
